Do you guys have any problems with the 18 X 11 rear dimensions on the car???

Im not a fan of the tires sticking to far out from the fender...

Thanks for your thoughts

Chad

Also What is tubbing and will I have to do it with the 18 X 11 rears?



Here is what the back of mine looks like and you do not have to tube with the 18 X 11 and I bet Nate will have those rims in the stock sizes, I needed wider rubber

Hyperblack XMS wheels in the avatar. The hyperblack can look like polished wheels in the dead sunlight and dark gray to black in the shade!!!
